Tutor:

Robert Bouška, Zdeněk Rudovský

Supervisor:

Department of Construction Management and Economics

Synopsis:

The course focuses on an introduction to digitization in construction. It is designed to familiarize students with basic topics that will be followed up on in other courses within the program. The topics are selected to create the necessary terminology and knowledge base that can be built upon throughout the entire program. Some topics, on the other hand, link the topic of digitization in construction in the context of other specializations, allowing students to gain a comprehensive view of the issue.
